Planning application
2021/0783/CAT
12 Fairfield Close Langham Rutland LE15 7JQ
Proposal
Fell Bay Tree (T1) possibly originally grown for bay leaves, now considerably overgrown and obscuring attractive and substantial cherry tree (T4). Excessive shading and possibly unwise to be grown so close to building. Suggested low amenity value. Fell (Sorbus?) (T2) considered too close to extension (Planning Consent (2021/0225/FUL). Would create shading issues and possible root issues with new building. Fell Conifer of unknown name (T3) overlaps boundary of extension. Suggested low amenity value. No action currently: Cherry tree (T4) Reassess if consent for fell (T1) .

What a grant of permission means
The process from here
Permission has been granted, usually subject to conditions listed on the decision notice, some of which must be discharged before work starts. The decision notice on the council portal sets out exactly what was approved.
Work must normally begin within three years of the decision or the permission lapses. Neighbours cannot appeal a grant; challenging one means judicial review of how the decision was made, within tight time limits.
About trees applications
How this application type works
Tree applications cover work to protected trees: those under a tree preservation order need consent for pruning or felling, and trees in a conservation area need six weeks written notice before work starts. The council assesses the amenity value of the tree and can refuse consent, approve it with conditions, or in conservation areas make a preservation order in response.
